New Establishment,

f. G. Hammond & Co. are about to
embark in business venture that
should prove profitable to the firm.
They propose to open up in the build
ing now occupied by Peter Deuber as a
harness shop, a wholesale fruit and
imported candy store. 1t is the inten-
ton to handle tropical and domestic
fruits and in such quantities as to
be able to supply local and
neighboring retail dealers. The build
ing will not be ready for occupancy
before the 18th of August. 1t will be
entirely over hauled and reftted for
the new establishment. The firm is
composed of young men of energy
and enterprise who have just settled in
the Falls, and it is to be hoped that
they will find the project successful

pugilistic Girls.

Yesterday afternoon the attention
of the REVIEW employees was at
tracted by the sound of shrill voices
in the alley just back of their build
ing. The voices proved to belong to
tw0 girls well known about town as
Ruby and Belle. But the girls were
doing something else besides talk
ing; fists and nails were playing
fully as important a part as tongues.
When the reporter reached point
commanding the scene of action the
girls were doing some short arm
work that would put John l.. to
shame. No fouls were claimed or
allowed. At first Ruby was getting
the best of the contest but she did
not have good staying qualities and
soon fled from the field pursued by
a vOlley Of sticks and stones and in
decent language. 1t was found later
that Ruby's arm and shoulder were
badly cut, probably by the stones
hurled at her by her antagonist. 1t
appears that the woman Belle swore
out a complaint before Judge Booge
and Chief Warren served the war
rant last evening. The case will
probably be up for adjustment to-
day.

Pacific Commission.

SAN Francisco, Aug. 3.-Senator
Stanford's examination before the Pa
cific railroad commission was resumed
to-day. When asked about certain
suits commenced by San Joaquin
county and other stockholders suits
against the Central Pacific, Stanford
said they were blackmaiing suits, but
the company thought they had better
settle them as they were building other
roads at the time, and desird to go on
with the work. In answer to ques-
ton Stanford admitted that officers of
the Central Pacific had derived some
benefit from contracts made with the
contract and finance company for the
construction of various roads, but said
he thought they were entitled to make
some money out of their investment.
Commissioner Anderson going rather
deeply into the matter of branch roads
and making his questions somewhat
pointed, Stanford observed that to his
mind the commission seemed more
like "a prosecuting commission than
an Investigating one, or rather like an
inquisition."
81 am sorry" was Anderson's re-
sponse," ,"but am afraid / shall have to
choose my own methods"
" Do | understand that as the Cen
trail Pacific stands to-day, that it has
no access to tide water unless at the
wish of the Southern Pacific"
"The aided portion never did get into
San Francisco" was the reply of STAN
ford.
Anderson again put the question
and wanted to know il it were govern
ment lines where would be the Cen.
trail Pacitic's terminus, and was told at
Sacramento.

SPOKANE FALLS. w. L. THURSDAY AUGUST A, 1887.

ports where American vessels engaged
in fishing may replensh their stock
of provisions, and if so name them?
Answer-Not any but in autumn
when American fisherman are out OF
provisions and leaving for home, they
are permitted to take such as they may
require for that purpose only.
Second-Will it be insisted upon
that every American fishermen an
choring in port or other places on
the coast, for shelter only must enter
and clear at the custom house?
Answer-At all times when practi-
cable to do so, but if at an incon-
venient distance from custom house,
and cruiser is present, her captain
will enter and clear those who apply.
Third What construction is placed
by Canadian officials on the word ere
pairs" as expressed in the treaty of
1918. That is, may fisherman who
need repairs to his rigging enter port
to buy rope? Does the word "repars"
include everything on board such
vessels that are necessary to complete
fishing vessel?
Answer-This must be left to the
discretion of the collector of customs,
or the captain of cruisers as il is liable
to great abuse.
Fourth-Are Canadian officials in
structed to restrict Americans to GER
tain ports in the bay of Chaluer and
Gaspe for wood, water and repairs,
and if so what ports are they?
Answer--The bay of Chaluers is
%. 40 a. 1.
the exception of Port Daniel and Mis-
core harbor, which are open to them
for the purpose of obtaining wood,
water, shelter and repairs, but when
medical aid is required they may go to
Paspebiac for that purpose only.
Gaspe is not closed, but American fish
ermen can only enter for either of
the four things mentioned in the
treaty.
Fifth-Magdalene Islands being ac-
cepted by the treaty stipulations from
restrictions applied to other points on
the coast, it is to be understood that
American fishermen may at that point
ship fish in bond to the United States,
and receive salt and barrels from the
United States in bond shipment and
purchase provisions there?
Answer-Under convention Ameri
can fishermen can only take, cure and
dry fish at Magdalene, under restric-
tions specified in the treaty, therefore
they cannot ship fish in bond ship
ment, nor purchase supplies.
Sixth-Are dominion cruisers au-
thorized to enter and clear vessels in
the same manner as collector of GUS
toms?
Answer-They are where no colleo-
tor Of customs is present. (See answer
to number 2.)
The information returned by Capt.
Scott is on the whole, it is understood,
not satisfactory to Admiral Luce.

dropped, prior to his departure, in
conversation with one of our business
men, remarks to the effect that the
supreme court would not grant new
trial to the condemned anarchists of
Chicago. 1t is stated that the Judge
said when the case was heard by the
supreme court, judges argued upon
refusal Of new trial that it could not
be learned which one OF the judges
was writing the opinion. Judge Craig
is reported to have said the court was
quite unanimous in the opinion, but
opinion was to be kept secret until
the opening of the September term.
Justice Magruder. OF the state supreme
court, who is in Chicago, was shown
the above dispatch and said: "rhis is
matter on which / cannot be inter-
viewed. / know nothing of Judge
Craig's utterances, but from what l
know of him should be strongly in
clined to doubt his having made such
nstatement." States attorney general
and Capt, VIM. c. Black of anarchists
counsel knew nothing Of the matter
and placed no faith in it.

The Assn alt Case.

The assault case of Duncan vs.
Duncan appears to have been settled
amicably. At any rate Mr.. j. II.
Duncan failed to put in an appear
ance yesterday to make a complaint
as he had said he should do. This
fact would seem to bear out the pre-
vailing opinion that the officer had
cause for acting on the defensive.

never heard anything like them be-
fore. New York Sun.
"Edouard Zerega, the principal
mandolinist, showed himself to be a

and won distinction and decided
favor with his listeners. He was
warmly encored, and gave in re-
spOnse some of the most beautiful
and brilliant selections ever heard in
the Troy Music Hall. l."--Troy, On.

"In concerted music, these players
display keen sense of light and
shade, and some of their selections
enable them to accomplish the most
marvellous pianisimos ever heard in

Story of a Minister.

The Boston Record rehabilitates a
story which may not be as new as
some Others, but is better than the
great majority. A minister very
small in statue but of great ability
once mad a charge near Boston.
One Sunday he came to the latter city
to preach in the Ola South Church.
The Record tells the rest:
In the forenoon he was assisted by
the regular pastor OF the church, who
conducted the preliminary services oil
singing and prayer and the reading
of the scriptures. When the time for
the sermon came the congregation
saw little round head barely ap.
pearing above the great pulpit, and
the big sounding board overhead gave
all the strength it could to the mild
piping voice, which in announcing the
text said reassuringly: "It is l; be not
afraid" The contrast between the
idea conveyed by the words and the
person and manner of the speaker
was so ridiculous that a. very audi
able smile rippled over the usually
dignifed congregation. Mr.. Hurd
was very much mortified by the laugh
ter that arose, and to provide
against any further ridicule of his
small size he had a foot-stool placed
in the pulpit before the afternoon
service. At that service he announced
his text with great confidence: "A lit.
tie while, and ye shall not sec me; and
again, q little while, and you shall see
me. "Then he began to repeat his text,
and, stepping back to give it orator.
ical effect, tumbled off from his crick-
ct and disappeared.

Twice Defied Death.
Atlanta Constitution.

Atlanta Constitution.
II have been twice prepared for
burial. My right arm was shot off
and a shell took off a large slice OF my
chin and knocked out five front teeth"
exclaimed an ex-confederate veteran
recently.
The speaker was during the war an
orderly sergeant in the Third Georgia
regiment. He had just returned from
New Orleans, where he attended the
Mardi Gras festivities, and was on
his way home in Wilkes county. Ar
irving in Atlanta he missed train con
nection. and was compelled to stop
over. The thought OF his pension oc.
curedto him, and he walked into Cover
nor Gordon Office about 5 o'clock. The
veteran presented himself to Captain
Harrison, the popular and genial
clerk of the executive department, and
showed that functionary his creden-
tials. They proved to be correct, and
a warrant was given him on the trea-
surer for forty dollars.

ton, and reported dead. was all
ready for burial when l awoke and
convinced the attendants OF their
error. My sister had been previously
advised of my death and she went in
to mourning.
"My second perilous adventure was
at the battle OF Spottsylvania. I had
been offered the captaincy OF the COM
pany but declined, having q much bet
ter position. Well, as it happened,
the captain had been killed, and took
the lead. We found our path OBJ
structed by a line of federals, the lead
er of which picked me out as target.
His aim was unerring, for my right
arm was shattered from the elbow
down by three minnie balls. felt

bullet right square between his eyes.
Just then q shell exploded within a

to the hospital, remained unconscious
for a whole day, and when 1 awoke
